Scarlett's fingers twitched as she opened her tired eyes and saw Nina's face. She grabbed Nina's hand tightly.

Nina noticed and looked at her again. "Scarlett!"

Scarlett's weak voice whispered, "So cold..."

Nina held her close. "I'll hold you. You won't be cold. You won't be cold."

"Am I dying?" Scarlett asked weakly. "I'm sorry. I couldn't find the antidote for you... I... cough, cough..."

"It's okay, it's okay!" Nina said. "Don't talk. The ambulance is here. I'll get you on it, and you'll be fine."

Scarlett's eyes started to glaze over. She spoke faintly, "Don't be sad for me. We didn't have much connection. It was all for Wilfred. Living is exhausting. It's kind of nice that I won't have to struggle to survive anymore."

Her life felt like it should never have started. There was no joy, only constant helplessness. No family, alone, and no one to love her. Living had lost its meaning.

"Now you can live well," Nina said, trying to ignite Scarlett's will to survive. "Sawyer is captured, this place is destroyed. No one can control you anymore. You can live beautifully. Didn't you say you wanted to live and be pretty? You can't give up. You can't!"

Nina almost shouted, desperate to see Scarlett hold onto life.

Scarlett gazed at Nina, a faint smile on her lips. "Can I really live well?"
